exit: reparent: avoid find_new_reaper() if no children

Browse Source 
Now that pid_ns logic was isolated we can change forget_original_parent()
to return right after find_child_reaper() when father->children is empty,
there is nothing to reparent in this case.

In particular this avoids find_alive_thread() and this can help if the
whole process exits and it has a lot of PF_EXITING threads at the start of
the thread list, this can easily lead to O(nr_threads ** 2) iterations.

Trivial test case (tested under KVM, 2 CPUs):

    static void *tfunc(void *arg)
    {
        pause();
        return NULL;
    }

    static int child(unsigned int nt)
    {
        pthread_t pt;

        while (nt--)
            assert(pthread_create(&pt, NULL, tfunc, NULL) == 0);

        pthread_kill(pt, SIGTRAP);
        pause();
        return 0;
    }

    int main(int argc, const char *argv[])
    {
        int stat;
        unsigned int nf = atoi(argv[1]);
        unsigned int nt = atoi(argv[2]);

        while (nf--) {
            if (!fork())
                return child(nt);

            wait(&stat);
            assert(stat == SIGTRAP);
        }

        return 0;
    }
